Concept:Earth rotates 360∘ in 24 hours, so each 1∘ of longitude equals 4 minutes of time. Eastward locations are ahead of Greenwich Mean Time.Explanation:Time at Greenwich is 10:00 a.m.The place is at 30∘ East longitude.Time difference for 1∘=4 minutes.So, time difference for 30∘=30×4=120 minutes = 2 hours.Because the place is east of Greenwich, add the time difference to GMT.Therefore, local time = 10:00 a.m. + 2 hours = 12:00 noon (12:00 p.m.).Answer:A. 12.00 pm
